I stället för att tillbringa resten av sitt liv instängd på sjukhuset bestämmer han sig för att bryta sig loss och åka på en sista resa. I en annons på internet söker han efter någon att dela resan med, och till sin förvåning möter han några dagar senare Joanne framför den husbil han i hemlighet skaffat sig. Den unga kvinnan i den stora svarta hatten, med en ryggsäck som enda bagage, ger ingen förklaring till varför hon är där.<br/>Det blir början på en fantastisk resa, där varje avstickare innebär nya möten och nya självinsikter.
